Looking to buy these 2 figures within Japan if possible, tried pre-ordering on amiami but since it's an exclusive on Tokyo Figure slated to release Dec 2019, they can't ship it within Japan this time. https://myfigurecollection.net/item/595821https://myfigurecollection.net/item/532059Anyone here knows how people in Japan are buying them? Find it hard to believe they can only get it from Tokyo Figure lol, plus they're so far not a great site to buy with, I ordered a Saber racing ver (https://myfigurecollection.net/item/498420) from them a week ago and it's not shipped yet. |

QUOTE(EXkurogane @ Aug 5 2019, 11:06 PM) Tohsaka Rin is getting a re-release, Dec 2019. So you might want to stalk some japanese sites when the time comes. Saber Extra is harder to find at the moment Yup, so far only see them on Tokyo Figure as they're listed as limited+exclusive to Japan market. Their shipping is a bit hefty for domestic shipping. I've already ordered my saber extra, looking to get Rin and Nero too |

I'm just curious after seeing the taobao guide.
Is it cheaper to get original figures from taobao compared to Japanese sites ?

QUOTE(EXkurogane @ Aug 20 2019, 09:27 PM) For prize figures, in general yes. Especially when u buy many from a single seller - mainly because the shipping from china is cheaper compared to from Japan. For scales, depends on what figure you are looking for, but it's indeed true that some of my figures were acquired from taobao cheaper than from the likes of amiami, when you factor in the total including shipping. For preorders i would get from japan (those early bird discounts); if hunting for already released, ready stock stuff, there are chances that getting from taobao seller is about 5-10% cheaper when u total up with shipping. The main reason being postage from china is a lot cheaper than from japan. But the packaging/protection by chinese sellers in general are not as strong as the likes of Amiami. I'm still ok with minor dents on boxes though. Have you ever tried asking the seller for extra packaging since it's international shipping? I found something I want on taobao, seems like a reputable shop but I'm worried bout shipping hahah, just had some stuff arrived, outside box damaged but insides were ok |

QUOTE(zodius @ Aug 28 2019, 10:57 PM) Hi guys, have u ever purchase any figure from carousel? Is it trustable? Really depends on the seller I guess, ask for pics and compare with photoa on MFC to see whethee it's a bootleg. There's a higher risk here of course. I've only bought mine from Japanese sites and MFC users so far. |

QUOTE(Ryutaro @ Sep 12 2019, 11:59 AM) sakurajima mai 1/7! mind to disclose how much you pay for it? they seriously doesn't care about wrapping it up nicely so the box doesn't get squish can't really tell if it's worth it to pay lower price but get the box squished I paid about 600+ including shipping. I cant find her from Japanese retailers too, it's aniplex exclusive so very hard to get. To be honest, I might find a new one and get it in a better box condition because Mai has a special place in my heart haha |

QUOTE(Ryutaro @ Sep 12 2019, 12:44 PM) unless aniplex is doing a rerelease u wont find her anymore other than ppl willing to let go their pre-owned imo do it like this guy and forget about the box  » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « tbh i was very shock when i read the light novel how perfect of a girlfriend mai is waiting patiently for the movie to screen in malaysia or on the Internet for a good cry Yeah this is a pretty good idea haha, as the other person mentioned, what about the light source for this? It's external right? I currently have all of my figures in boxes and haven't displayed them. I like the white ver of this too but it's too expensive. |

Anyone know where I can sell figures in Malaysia? Carousell ah?
Oh and to those who are curious whether Taobao sellers can do extra packaging, they can't and they ask you to fk off lmao
I tried asking and saying I'd pay them extra and they say too troublesome and they don't want to sell it anymore.

QUOTE(MeToo @ Sep 26 2019, 12:58 PM) Some even sell it on LYN. Infact I got my Dark Angel Olivia from a seller in LYN .. Hmm i see, will take a look around. Also, anyone here bought from Tokyo Otaku Mode before? Price is in USD. But their points system seems pretty good and free shipping above $150 too. |
